for sleep ## I found that Trazodone 50mg really helped me sleep. I suffer from Fibromyalgia and when the doctor added this medication with my ambien I am getting at least 5 or 6 hours of sleep a night instead of 2 or 3. ## Trazodone is actually an SARI antidepressant that can cause drowsiness as a side effect, thus some have found it helpful for sleep issues. Learn more Trazodone details here. Its side effects may include drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth and weight changes. Are there any questions or comments? Is there anything I can help with?

Please let me know what a 50 mg pill of Trazodone looks like. I just picked up a refill and the pills are different than before. I can't sleep and I'm wondering if it's the wrong pill. ## I'm having the same problem with 150mg ## I'm not sure what mg pill I had but they were white with a line down the middle and they were circular. ## Sorry, you have not provided enough information. This drug is available in both name brand and generic versions. There are many generic manufacturers and each one of them will make a pill that looks different. There are no rules saying that pills with the same ingredient have to look the same! The size, color, shape and imprint will all vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. The only relevant regulations from the FDA state that they mu...

Can you split this medication so that it is 25 mg? ## Since it is not a time released mediation, yes, you can safely split the tablet if necessary. Have you discussed a dosage adjustment with your doctor? Trazodone is an antidepressant. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, headache and dry mouth.

Is it safe to take Trazodone and Norco together at bedtime? I'm prescribed both and both say "1 at bedtime", but I'm very paranoid about mixing meds. I've had doctors mess up and overdose me. ## Taking them together may cause you to experience more side effects than usual, according to FDA reports, which may include nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, and problems with concentrating. Thus, they can be taken together, if your doctor has prescribed them both, but they should be monitoring you regularly to watch for any problems. What doses have been prescribed? Are you on any other medications? ## Trazodone 50mg take 1 at bed time Norco 5-325 take 1 at bed time Tramadol 50mg Take 1 tablet every 6 hrs as needed Flexirl 5mg Take 1-2 every 8 hrs as needed I have Rheumatoid Art...

My pharmacy just switched manufacturers of my prescription trazodone 50mg. It used to be made by apotex now it is pliva and I am finding that the new pills are having little to no effect and I am starting to suffer discontinuation syndrome. I talked to my pharmacist and doctor and neither one could tell me what was causing this. I was just wondering if there is anyone out there who could shed some light on the subject. ## Yes, I can. Under Federal Law, by way of the Hatch Watchman Act of 1984, generics are allowed to differ from their name brand counterparts by as much as plus or minus 20% in the active ingredient. Many people are not aware of this, including doctors, but the FDA considers this to be a very minor difference that does not affect the therapeutic dosing of medications. So,...

I have been on Paxil for anxiety for about 6 months, I was having trouble sleeping so my Dr added Trazodone 50mg 1 an hour before bedtime. Just wondering if anyone has been on the two together, and is it safe, since Traodone is also an antidepressant, I have to say I actually feel even better now, than when I was just taking the Paxil. I have been taking the Trazodone for about a month now. ## Hi Sandie, Hopefully your doctor was aware of this before adding the Trazodone, but according to various drug interaction checkers, combining these two medications may increase your risk of developing a rare but serious condition called serotonin syndrome. Symptoms associated with serotonin syndrome that you may want to watch out for, can include the following: Confusion, hallucination, blurred vi...

I currently am using Trazodone HCL 150Mg for insomnia. I usually cut the dosage in half or in thirds and notice my eyes and vision seem to be affected. It is as if my eyes are really tired, blink a lot, and definitely irritated. I take no other meds except 25Mg of Metoprolol ER to slow a rapid heartbeat. I have been taking Metoprolol for many months with no side effects. I previously had been using 50MG of Trazodone and it was quite ineffective. My doctor increased the dosage to help me sleep. I do not notice anyone complaining of eye problems. The Mfr. of Trazodone is TEVA Pharm. ## Hello, Gloria! How are you? The FDA does list blurry vision among the possible side effects of Trazodone, but they don't specify how or why it causes it, so yes, your symptoms could possibly be due to t...

trazodone and methadon mix well?or will it kill me ## Im on methadone and Trazadone and have been passing out in seconds of taking the trazadone waking up at table, computer, etc with bruises on face is it cause of the mixture? ## First... take the medications sitting on the bed, ready for sleep. Second, you don't mention what strengths you are taking of each. 20 mg of Methadone and 50mg of Trazodone should not hurt you... if you sleep well then great... if you only sleep for a couple of hours then you should consult your Dr. ## For anyone experiencing an issue like this, it is very important that you consult your doctor immediately, regardless of the dose. Both of these medications may cause depression of the central nervous system, that could cause severely lowered blood pressure ...

Took an 627 with my sleeping pill traodone by mistake now very dizzy should I be concerned ## Hello, Bj! How are you? The tablet with the AN 627 marking is manufactured by Amneal Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 50mgs of Tramadol. The FDA classifies this as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Trazodone is classified as a tetracyclic antidepressant, that is also used to help with insomnia. Its typical side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and weight gain. Are you still experiencing symptoms? Both of these medications can increase serotonin levels in your body, which could lead to serotonin syndrome and it can be fatal. Have y...

I take 1mg Clonazepam. 50mg trazodone for insomnia around 11pm.....10 mg singulair and 60 units Lantus at 9pm. This is pretty much my usual schedule. I've had around 5 or hrs of sleep this week. What maybe the problem? ## Hello, Dee! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem you're having. How long have you been taking these doses? You may have developed tolerance to them, if you've been on them for awhile. Alternatively, you may be more stressed than usual, or you may have changed something in your diet that is causing it. The Singular could also be a culprit. Have you changed the time you take it, or the dose recently? The FDA classifies Clonazepam as a benzodiazepine, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness,...

## I've been taking this pill which i was told would help me sleep. They're Trazodone HCL 50mg tabs. It says on the bottle that it's for insomnia. Is this a sleeping pill and what does it do? I sleep 10-12 hours and I only take 1/2 the tablet. ## The thing about trazadone is it is actually an antidepressant,but only in high doses built up over a period of time(this level must be maintaind to be theraputic).But one of the side effects is extreme drowsiness,but if taken regularly your tolerencn will build up.Mine builds up after a period of time and I have to stop taking it for 6 months in order for it to b effective for me.But overall it does its job for sleep,I have been taking it for 5 years ## Just like the trance song, I can't get no sleep. That is how I feel every ni...
